One could argue it is not a fashion label at all, rather an interdisciplinary studio resting between product design, decorative art, and service delivery that happens to make clothing. The company founded by Desiree Heiss and Ines Kaag seeks to generate a cohesive relationship between lifestyle and objects. Born of its founders’ realization that neither were suited for traditional fashion jobs, they have sidestepped the industry’s strictures by staying small and pursuing passion over profit.
